BRIEF OUTPATIENT TREATMENT PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Weyland Consultation Services, with a convenient office location in Walnut Creek CA, provides the Brief Treatment Program (BTP) for the person who meets the criteria of moderate alcohol or substance abuse. Moderate abuse may be defined as binge drinking, the occasional loss of control, or the beginning reliance on alcohol or drugs to manage lifes problems and related stressors.

For individuals using illicit substances, your pattern and history of use will be carefully evaluated to determine if the BTP will be an effective treatment option for you. This program may also be useful for the person who is taking prescription medications resulting from a medical procedure, who is becoming concerned about their increasing reliance and missuse of the medication.

This program is not, however, for the client who is in need of detoxification or hospitalization services. If our assessment findings indicate that you require inpatient detoxification we will explore other programming options provided by Weyland that might better fit your needs. The BTP offers 3-5 initial sessions to assess and determine your service needs followed by 6 weeks of individual, group counseling, or both based on your specific needs.
